Hi

Fuel injectors checked OK.

However.I notices that with the ignition on..the fuel pump never ran.it only ran as I deflected the metering plate. Then I could see fuel coming through the injectors.

But when I removed the blue air flow sensor connections.I could hear the fuele pumps running .

Any thoughts ?

Regards

Thanks Stretch,

I drained out 5 litres.

and put in about 7.5 litres. Castrol dexron11. level ok.

...

The missing 2.5 litres is a bit of a concern!

The amount you put back in is close to the specified 7.9 litres for a 722.0 mated to a V8 engine (specified in maintenance manual)

Just to be sure => Are you checking the level with the engine running at operating temperature etc?

or, the timing . the distributor was removed when the water pump was changed. if I recall, with the cams on the timing marks and the from crank pulley on 0, then the distributor rotor points to the notch mark in the distributor housing.? please give me your wisdom on this set up.

appreciate your comments.

I've never even seen your engine before in real life so all I can do is send you the following links.

Removal and installation of your distributor =>

Timing check =>

If the advance / retard functionality of the engine "management system" isn't working correctly then you would indeed have an under powered engine at higher revs.

HI All,

thanks for your support.

problem solved. it was the fuel injectors. after testing for flow pattern. the non uniform flow injectors were replaced.

the car now drives perfectly.

best regards
